6/11 GDT Gnats @ Horse

Ok whether he is hurt or just shitting all over the game, get him out

 

[Stokes1931]

When did Chuck Knoblauch come out of retirement to pitch for us?

Growing up a Twinkies fan, Knobby's throwing yips was the strangest thing I'd seen on a diamond. Almost all of them were routine plays. When he had to hurry, he was excellent. :smh:

 

[Stokes1931]

35 pitches already in the first inning. 21 pf them balls.

Quit hanging around Timmy, and spend more time with Huddy!

 

[Stokes1931]

Inning Over!

Just your typical 36 pitch three run on four walks and ONE STINKING HIT first inning.

Giants will see 6 pitches in the bottom of the first.

 

[Stokes1931]

And Herk watches three fastballs over the heart of the plate for a K.

 

[Stokes1931]

Well 11 pitches and three weak AB's. Both balls in play traveled about 80 feet between them. And Herk was watching something other than pitches.

Might be a good night not to watch this. As good as we have been playing, this has been tough to watch how badly we are playing the Nats.

Can I get a second opinion on how Kuip is pronouncing Roark's name? Not feeling this Ro- Ark business. I thought it was like Mr. Roark from Fantasy Island

I blame my craziness/trigger finger on planning the return of my podcast (shameful plug to cover up my bad post)

I didn't watch the Twinks at the time of Kobbies issues, so I cannot compare, but Steve Sax went through it as well. It also ended Macky Sassers career (although he was a catcher, not a 2B). I don't know if either were as bad as Knobbs, though.

Alright Morse... Lets wake up those bats!

Jobu needs to get to work!

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Dear lineup, please stop it with the FPOM and SPOM

Just chiming in for pronunciation reasons. It is indeed Ro-Ark. It takes some getting used to hearing it like that, though.

Reminds me of "A Time to Kill", and how they pronounced the name of Sandra Bullock's character.

Thanks for the info. It sounded like he was struggling with it a bit in the beginning. Hopefully we'll get him out of the game soon & I won't have to hear it anymore

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

OT: I still think we need another starter

 

[Band of Brothers]

Just got home Cain 83 pitches through 4 innings. Giants down 3-0 . Time for a comeback.

 

[Band of Brothers]

And here comes the Giants now down 3-1 on a Crawford triple to score Buster.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Tough not to get that 2nd run but at least the G-Men are on the board. 3-1 Top 5

 

[Band of Brothers]

Teams especially the Nats are really pounding the Giants hitters inside. Time to make a adjustment.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

I will never understand why Schulman thinks we don't need to upgrade at 2B
